[/i]"The mess of electrical cables that recharge our laptops, mobile phones and PDAs could soon disappear altogether -- at least according to a team of US physicists, who have shown how power can be transmitted without wires using special "resonant" antennas. The researchers used the system to power a 60-W light bulb placed two metres from a wireless transmitter, and say that it could be scaled down for use in portable devices without a loss of efficiency."[/i]
Read the article to see how they have overcome the problem of omnidirectional power output. Obviously, the next logical conclusion is transporter beams, energy shields and transporters are in the works, right? :wink:
